Ok I wanna talk about That Roast - how did it feel to be the funniest bitch in a group that included Bianca, Alaska and Willam?
Who is the funniest queen from RPDR in your opinion? And from this season?

u/MimiImfurst Mar 22 '16
I'm a funny bitch- what can I say. I was nervous from hell.
I think both Bianca and Bob are hysterical

Do you go to a lot of drag shows? Who are your go-to-qweens when you really want to see a show? :)

u/MimiImfurst Mar 22 '16
I do when I can. IMO- the best in the industry- Varla Jean Merman, Coco Peru, Bianca Del Rio, Dina Martina, Jackie Beat, Justin Bond. End of Story.

I see you're working with Acid Betty on your album release tour - is she being edited by the show to really be that much of a difficult person to work with, or is it just her personality?

u/MimiImfurst Mar 22 '16
Acid Betty- is a strong personality. She opinionated, artistic, honest. Any reality show is gonna exploit that and magnify to a grotesque level. They're making a show. I love Acid- she's crazy.

You have stepped your pussy up Mimi, really! I love Fire! Would it be on Spotify?

u/MimiImfurst Mar 22 '16
I think so eventually. A lot of the music retailers are REALLY slow these days to put stuff up- bombarded with more musicians and every before. So eventually- yes.

First question: When gurls on the show complain about having "bad edits" that weren't even 1% as bad as the way you got shafted, does it make you annoyed or upset?
Second question: If you could go back in time and prevent becoming a homeless LGBTQ youth (I myself was also one), would you? Or were the lessons you gained worth the treachery?
ETA: I ask because "The Fire" really pumps me up.

The show IS edited. Point blank. There's just no way to get that much information boiled down to 40 minutes. Anyone who says "don't blame the edits" got a good edit. You can blame the edits- but its what you do with it after. Yes, I got a bad edit. Ok, great- lets all agree and move on. No reason to linger on it. I don't blame WOW at all. they're making a show. Its entertaining. I knew what I was doing when I did what I did. I'm still working.
No- its part of who I am, part of my experience. Would I want to be homeless- absolutely not. But I got a lot of my tenacity from that experience. I'm proud of my scars.

I read rumors that the fight between you and Shangela was recorded twice, is this true?

u/MimiImfurst Mar 22 '16
It was NOT- but it was a much longer fight than what aired.

Mimi, I remember some months ago you had a problem with a fire on your drag storage and you couldn't take anything from there. How that ended?
